Ye that stupid towel head sheikh aint laughing now!!!, WTF do u expect from a man who spends a billion dollars on horses... do u really fink he wants foreigners to just settle in dubai forever?? no way he just wants them to work, spend and when they broke get the fuck out quick. One thing i ll give the towel head people of the UAE is that they pissed off with the fact that they a minority in their own country yet they shallow collaborators who are bribed for ther loyalty to the sheikh
I also believe Dubai has played its geographic location, regional instability, and US/EU racism cards brilliantly. It sits at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and Africa and leveraged its location to build a major seaport and airport. It harnessed instability in Middle East, Central Asia and South Asia by offering an oasis of calm and security. Finally, it implemented an easy visa regimen to encourage Asians to enjoy world-class amenities typically found only in US and EU.
I am fascinated with Dubai for several reasons: (a) development of a non-oil economic model in a region totally dependent on oil, (b) execution of country's development model through utilization of mostly foreign financial and intellectual capital, (c) creation of world-class tourism, retail, leisure, sports, and real estate industries to drive growth, and (d) fostering of a cosmopolitan and tolerant atmosphere in a region known for extremism. And it did this in record time!
